Reheating Rice {microwave-less}

I can't remember if I've posted about this... but I've been without a microwave for almost 2 weeks. For the most part, I have not missed it much, but there have been a few things...

Tonight, I wanted to reheat some rice that I'd made earlier in the week. I always reheat my rice in the microwave. I had to stop and really think about what I could do... I decided that I would probably reheat it on the stove, but that I should probably check with all of the experts on the internet.

I found this set of suggestions, and this is what I decided to do:

*Boil some water on the stove (enough to cover the rice)
*Add the rice, and let it continue to boil.
*Stir occasionally as it boils for 2-3 minutes
*Drain as much of the water as possible.

It was not as good as fresh, but it has potential to be better than the microwave. I didn't get quite enough of the water out, so it was more like sticky rice than regular white rice. However, without my microwave, I would say that this first attempt at reheating rice was a success!
